Re: OT: Should computers stay on constantly?
So basically, the only real reason to turn it off is to save electricity, and perhaps to prolong the life of components (though likely to be obsolete before death anyways).
In that case I guess I'll just shut her off at night, leave on all day unless I'm not going to be around.
One more question: Do repeated shut downs/reboots lessen the life of components?
